Available to hire
I’m Neal Carter, a multimedia producer and creative strategist based in Hampton Roads. I specialize in videography, video editing, event planning and coordination, and digital content creation—turning ideas into polished, audience-focused stories across commercial shoots, live events, interviews, podcasts, promotional campaigns, and social media.
From pre-production through final delivery, I manage the full production lifecycle: creative development, scripting and interview planning, shot lists, scheduling, filming, and post-production with tools like Adobe Premiere, DaVinci Resolve, and CapCut. I also lead social media campaign creation—optimizing hooks, pacing, captions, and messaging—and collaborate with marketing and event teams to translate goals into effective production plans and finished content.
